20020617: Interference/noise on 1km GINI composites




Pete,

I found that one culprit is the GRB N0R product for 1620Z.
It has a bad radial. If you try to display it with gpmap,
the program will output the "bad radial" message. The 
display of the image stops at that point. This probably means that
there is garbage in the display structure that nex2gini is
reading when creating the composites. I probably have to explicitly
zero out the display (eg clear the virtual display first).

Now that I have a sample image to use, I should be able to correct that.
